Metformin delivery via iontophoresis based on κ-carrageenan cryogels. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 223:702-712. [PMID: 36395633 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.11.098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2022] [Revised: 11/04/2022] [Accepted: 11/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
Transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) is the system for transmitting a drug through the skin into the blood circulation. In this work, κ-Carrageenan (κC) was used as the drug matrix material. The porous κC matrices were fabricated by dissolving the κC in deionized water to obtain hydrogels and then using the freeze-dryer to obtain cryogels. The porous (κC) matrices showed interconnected pore sizes varying between 6.05 to 25.8 nm. In the drug release experiments, the drug diffusion coefficient increased and the drug release duration was reduced with decreasing κC concentration due to the larger κC pore sizes. The diffusion coefficient increased with a shorter release time under the applied electric strength of +1.0 V due to the electro-repulsive force between the Metformin and the anode. For the drug release-permeation of the κC 0.8 % v/v cryogel through the pig skin under applied positive electrical potentials, the amounts of drug release-permeation and diffusion coefficients were enhanced with shorter durations relative to without electrical potential. The κC 0.8 % v/v matrix at the applied electric strength of +6.0 V has been shown here to be potential to be used as the Metformin transdermal controlled delivery patch for abdominal obesity and diabetes.

Abstract
Immobilization of Pd(OAc)2(TPPTS)2 in various renewable polysaccharides hydrogels, yielded heterogeneous catalysts that were successfully used, for the first time, in the aerobic oxidation of benzylic alcohol. The new catalysts were easily removed from the reaction mixture and recycled with some loss of activity. Among all tested polysaccharides, iota-carrageenan was found to be the most suitable support, using calcium chloride as a gelation agent.

Abstract
In the last decades, the discovery of metabolites from marine resources showing biological activity has increased significantly. Among marine resources, seaweed is a valuable source of structurally diverse bioactive compounds. The cell walls of marine algae are rich in sulfated polysaccharides, including carrageenan in red algae, ulvan in green algae and fucoidan in brown algae. Sulfated polysaccharides have been increasingly studied over the years in the pharmaceutical field, given their potential usefulness in applications such as the design of drug delivery systems. The purpose of this review is to discuss potential applications of these polymers in drug delivery systems, with a focus on carrageenan, ulvan and fucoidan. General information regarding structure, extraction process and physicochemical properties is presented, along with a brief reference to reported biological activities. For each material, specific applications under the scope of drug delivery are described, addressing in privileged manner particulate carriers, as well as hydrogels and beads. A final section approaches the application of sulfated polysaccharides in targeted drug delivery, focusing with particular interest the capacity for macrophage targeting.

Drug release kinetics and front movement in matrix tablets containing diltiazem or metoprolol/λ-carrageenan complexes. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2014; 2014:671532.

Abstract
In this work we investigated the moving boundaries and the associated drug release kinetics in matrix tablets prepared with two complexes between λ-carrageenan and two soluble model drugs, namely, diltiazem HCl and metoprolol tartrate aiming at clarifying the role played by drug/polymer interaction on the water uptake, swelling, drug dissolution, and drug release performance of the matrix. The two studied complexes released the drug with different mechanism indicating two different drug/polymer interaction strengths. The comparison between the drug release behaviour of the complexes and the relevant physical mixtures indicates that diltiazem gave rise to a less soluble and more stable complex with carrageenan than metoprolol. The less stable metoprolol complex afforded an erodible matrix, whereas the stronger interaction between diltiazem and carrageenan resulted in a poorly soluble, slowly dissolving matrix. It was concluded that the different stability of the studied complexes affords two distinct drug delivery systems: in the case of MTP, the dissociation of the complex, as a consequence of the interaction with water, affords a classical soluble matrix type delivery system; in the case of DTZ, the dissolving/diffusing species is the complex itself because of the very strong interaction between the drug and the polymer.

Three-dimensional supermacroporous carrageenan-gelatin cryogel matrix for tissue engineering applications. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2013; 2013:478279.

Abstract
A tissue-engineered polymeric scaffold should provide suitable macroporous structure similar to that of extracellular matrix which can induce cellular activities and guide tissue regeneration. Cryogelation is a technique in which appropriate monomers or polymeric precursors frozen at sub-zero temperature leads to the formation of supermacroporous cryogel matrices. In this study carrageenan-gelatin (natural polymers) cryogels were synthesized by using glutaraldehyde and 1-ethyl-3-[3-dimethylaminopropyl] carbodiimide hydrochloride and N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC-NHS) as crosslinking agent at optimum concentrations. Matrices showed large and interconnected pores which were in the range of 60–100 μm diameter. Unconfined compression analysis showed elasticity and physical integrity of all cryogels, as these matrices regained their original length after 90% compressing from the original size. Moreover Young's modulus was found to be in the range of 4–11 kPa for the dry cryogel sections. These cryogels also exhibited good in vitro degradation capacity at 37 °C within 4 weeks of incubation. Supermacroporous carrageenan-gelatin cryogels showed efficient cell adherence and proliferation of Cos-7 cells which was examined by SEM. PI nuclear stain was used to observe cell-matrix interaction. Cytotoxicity of the scaffolds was checked by MTT assay which showed that cryogels are biocompatible and act as a potential material for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Due to the limited self-repair capacity of cartilage, regenerative medicine therapies for the treatment of cartilage defects must use a significant amount of cells, preferably applied using a hydrogel system that can promise their delivery and functionality at the specific site. This paper discusses the potential use of κ-carrageenan hydrogels for the delivery of stem cells obtained from adipose tissue in the treatment of cartilage tissue defects. The developed hydrogels were produced by an ionotropic gelation method and human adipose stem cells (hASCs) were encapsulated in 1.5% w/v κ-carrageenan solution at a cell density of 5 × 10(6) cells/ml. The results from the analysis of the cell-encapsulating hydrogels, cultured for up to 21 days, indicated that κ-carrageenan hydrogels support the viability, proliferation and chondrogenic differentiation of hASCs. Additionally, the mechanical analysis demonstrated an increase in stiffness and viscoelastic properties of κ-carrageenan gels with their encapsulated cells with increasing time in culture with chondrogenic medium. These results allowed the conclusion that κ-carrageenan exhibits properties that enable the in vitro functionality of encapsulated hASCs and thus may provide the basis for new successful approaches for the treatment of cartilage defects.

Abstract
In the present work, we synthesized pH-responsive interpenetrating network (IPN) hydrogel beads of polyacrylamide grafted κ-carrageenan (PAAm-g-CG) and sodium alginate (SA) for targeting ketoprofen to the intestine. The PAAm-g-CG was synthesized by free radical polymerization followed by alkaline hydrolysis under nitrogen gas. The PAAm-g-CG was characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The drug-loaded IPN hydrogel beads were prepared by simple ionotropic gelation/covalent crosslinking method. The amorphous nature of drug in the beads was confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction studies. The spherical shape of the beads was confirmed by scanning electron microscopic analysis. The beads exhibited ample pH-responsive behavior in the pulsatile swelling study. The ketoprofen release was significantly increased when pH of the medium was changed from acidic to alkaline. The beads showed maximum of 10% drug release in acidic medium of pH 1.2, and about 90% drug release was recorded in alkaline medium of pH 7.4. Stomach histopathology of albino rats indicated that the prepared beads were able to retard the drug release in stomach leading to the reduced ulceration, hemorrhage and erosion of gastric mucosa.

Abstract
The present work describes the formulation and evaluation of the gastroretentive system of Itopride hydrochloride. In this research, we have formulated floating hydrogel-based microspheres employing calcium carbonate (CaCO(3)) as a gas forming agent dispersed in alginate matrix. In vitro characterizations such as drug content, particle size, and drug release were carried out. GI motility was determined by administration of charcoal meal to rats. Results demonstrated that prepared microspheres were spherical in shape with smooth surface, good loading efficiency, and excellent buoyancy. The gastro retentive dosage form of itiopride demonstrated significant antacid, anti-ulcer, and anti-GERD activity after 12 hours in comparison with the conventional dosage form.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
The main objective of this study was to determine the effect of potassium and calcium ions on the microstructure and release dynamics of kappa (κ) and iota (ι) carrageenan.
Methods
The microstructure of the dispersions was imaged using a cryogenic scanning electron microscope. Franz-cell diffusion apparatus was used to determine the release kinetics of a model hydrophilic drug, sodium fluorescein, incorporated in selected polymer dispersions. Release profiles were analysed using Higuchi, Korsmeyer-Peppas and dual first-order models.
Key Findings
Cryogenic scanning electron microscope images showed that κ-carrageenan forms hexagonal structures, whereas ι-carrageenan forms rectangular pores at low cation concentrations. In-vitro release studies showed sustained release profiles for all carrageenan systems; however the model drug, fluorescein, diffusion from ι-carrageenan with 0.06% w/v calcium was significantly higher than other ι-carrageenan systems. This may be attributed to improved tortuosity of this system. However further increase in cation concentration led to a reduction in fluorescein release from the matrices. The dual first-order release model illustrated two distinct release rates, an initial rapid release followed by a slow diffusion of fluorescein from the carrageenan matrices.
Conclusions
The observed microstructural differences may account for the well known variation in mechanical properties of κ- and ι-carrageenan gels. The dual first order release model adds a new tool in the elucidation of release mechanisms from polymer matrices, where parallel processes contribute to drug release.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to develop and characterize targeted sustained release nanoparticles of chitosan-glutamic acid conjugates containing triple therapy for Helicobacter pylori to improve its therapeutic effect and reduce its dose-related side effect. The chitosan-glutamate nanoparticles were prepared by using the ionotropic gelation method. The particle sizes of systems ranged between 550 nm and 900 nm. Percent drug entrapment and release profiles of amoxicillin, clarithromycin, and omeprazole in simulated gastric fluid (pH 1.2) were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography. The maximum % drug entrapment and % yield of formulations were about 60-90% and 73-88%, respectively. The stability of the drugs was assessed in simulated gastric fluid (pH 1.2). In vitro antibacterial efficacy of optimized formulations containing monotherapy and triple therapy on isolated culture of H. pylori was assessed. In vivo clearance study and histopathological study were also carried out on Swiss albino mice to evaluate the efficacy of triple therapy containing targeted nanosystem for the treatment of H. pylori. The proposed delivery system holds promise at optimizing the treatment of H. pylori.

Abstract
The aim of the present work was to prepare and evaluate the oral mucoadhesive sustained release nanoparticles of clarithromycin and omeprazole in order to improve patient compliance by improving its therapeutic effect and reducing its dose-related side effects. The clarithromycin- and omeprazole-containing gliadin nanoparticles were prepared by the desolvation method using Pluronic F-68 as a stabilizing agent. The results showed that this method is reproducible, easy, and leads to the efficient entrapment of drug as well as formation of spherical particles ranging from 400 to 650 nm. The maximum percentage of drug entrapment for clarithromycin and omeprazole was 81.7 +/- 2.2 and 73.7 +/- 3.9%, respectively, whereas the percentage of yield of the system was 85.1 +/- 1.9%. The sustained release behavior of gliadin nanoparticles was evaluated in phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4) and simulated gastric fluid (pH 1.2), at 37 +/- 1 degrees C. Their mucoadhesive properties were determined by in vitro and in vivo methods. In vitro antibacterial activity of the formulations was performed on isolated culture of Helicobacter pylori, which showed greater eradication effect of dual therapy entrapped formulations when compared with single therapy containing formulations and plain drugs.

Abstract
The purpose of this research was to explore theapplication of ionic interactions between naproxen sodium (NS) and chitosan (CH) in complexes (NSC) prepared by tray drying (TD) and spray drying (SD) methods. Drug-polymer ratio (1:1) in the NSC was optimized on the basis of dialysis studies. The particulate systems of NSC were prepared by tray drying (TD) and spray drying (SD) methods. Release retarding polymers were added to the NSC and to the physical mixtures containing NS-CH and their effects on water uptake, matrix erosion and drug release at different pH were compared. Spray dried complexes (SDC) were spherical, free flowing, light and fine amorphous particles in contrast to the crystalline, hard, tenacious, irregularly shaped, denser tray dried complexes (TDC) with poor flowability. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) patterns confirm the conversion of crystalline to high energy amorphous phase suitable for ionic interactions in NSC. Presence of release retarding polymers, kappa carrageenan and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) in the NSC compacts retarded the drug release and improved the matrix integrity. Carrageenan matrices exhibited more retardation than HPMC tablets. FTIR patterns, erosion, swelling and drug release from matrices support ionic interactions between NS and CH in NSC. The reasons for retarded drug release from the chitosan matrices at acidic pH include poor solubility of drug at acidic pH, formation of a rate limiting polymer gel barrier along the periphery of matrices and the ionic interactions between oppositely charged moieties.

Abstract
The reasons for retarded release of naproxen sodium from the chitosan matrices at different pH include poor aqueous solubility of drug, the formation of a rate-limiting polymer gel barrier along the periphery of matrices, the interaction of naproxen sodium with protonated amino groups of chitosan, and the interaction of ionized amino groups of chitosan with ionized sulfate groups of kappa-carrageenan.

Abstract
This work examines the influence of various process parameters on papain entrapped in cross-linked kappa-carrageenan beads for improvement of its stability. A Doehlert shell design (DSD) was employed to investigate the effect of three process variables, namely kappa-carrageenan concentration, KCl concentration, and hardening time, on the entrapment, time required for 50% enzyme release (T50), time required for 90% enzyme release (T90), and particle size. The beads were prepared by dropping the kappa-carrageenan containing papain into a magnetically stirred KCl solution. Topographical characterization was carried out by scanning electron microscopy and entrapment was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. Stability testing was carried out according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines for zone III and IV. A polymeric matrix was prepared with kappa-carrageenan (3.5% w/v) and potassium chloride (0.5 M) using the ionotropic gelation method, with a hardening time of 20 min. Beads characterized by a spherical disc shape with a collapsed center, an absence of aggregates, an entrapment of 82.75%, a T90 value of 55.36 min, and a composite index of 88.55 were produced. The shelf-life of the enzyme-loaded beads was found to increase to 3.63 years compared with 1.01 years for the conventional formulation. It can be inferred that the proposed methodology can be used to prepare papain-loaded kappa-carrageenan beads for stability improvement.
